I tend to read a few titles at a time (literary ADD) Recently I've finished:

• American Minimal Music by Wim Mertens
• Experimental Music: Cage and Beyond by Michael Nyman
• Cowboys and Indies: The Epic History of the Record Industry
• The Pirate's Dilemma: How Youth Culture Is Reinventing Capitalism
• Democracy of Sound: Music Piracy and the Remaking of American Copyright in the Twentieth Century
• Content: Selected Essays on Technology, Creativity, Copyright, and the Future of the Future
• and How Music Works by David Byrne

The next two titles currently in the post -

• For the Birds: John Cage in Conversation with Daniel Charles (recommended by Frownland!)
• and Ocean of Sound: Aether Talk, Ambient Sound and Imaginary Worlds

Also a huge Douglas Adams fan. I have the Ultimate Guide, the HH & Dirk Gently radio dramas, and the awesome Illustrated oversize.
